In 2026, the primary and most iconic way to cross between the Zimbabwean and Zambian sides of Victoria Falls is via the Victoria Falls Bridge. This historic steel arch bridge spans the Zambezi River and serves as a major pedestrian and vehicular border crossing. Travelers can walk across the bridge, which takes about 20 minutes, offering spectacular views of the gorge and the "smoke" from the falls. For a seamless experience, many tourists utilize the KAZA UniVisa, which in 2026 costs roughly $50 and allows for multiple entries between both countries for 30 days. Alternatively, you can take a taxi or a pre-arranged shuttle from Victoria Falls town (Zimbabwe) to Livingstone (Zambia). While the walk is highly recommended for the views, you must ensure your passport is stamped at the immigration offices located at either end of the bridge before proceeding.
